Selfhosted

A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.

Rules:

  1. Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.

  2. No spam posting.

  3. Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.

  4. Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.

  5. Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).

  6. No trolling.

The other bad news: there are so many vulnerabilities on all systems which can be used to gain root-level access, it's just a matter of time. Also, even future vulnerabilities will be an issue, as the underlying Sinkclose attacks will still work.

Honestly not on a hardened setup

Sure, if you'd rather like to believe that.

If it was that easy to get root then we would be in serious trouble. The best way I can think of is social engineering.
